The last time NSW cops got more power over protests they beat the seven shades of shit out of Hannah Thomas. Every law you make to empower police against Nazis, will be used against environmentalists, unions and all social activists. This has always been the way www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Wondering how I can transfer the constant yapping of my 6yo into renewable energy to power our house. 🧐

Tax the super-rich. Rewrite the rules and unrig the system. Raise billions for our communities, for healthcare and making people's lives better. Here's ten policies the Chancellor adopt, to make the tax system work for everyone taxjustice.uk/blog/how-to-...

The majority of the UK’s richest are happy to live here & pay their taxes. But what about the greedy few that use the UK to get rich, then bail when it's time to pay their dues? The UK needs a settling up tax, just like 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇳🇱 🇨🇦 🇦🇺 🇪🇸 🇮🇹 🇳🇴 🇯🇵. taxjustice.uk/blog/settlin...

DEWR sought an assurance report on the Targeted Compliance Framework. They got it. It told them clearly that the TCF could NOT be assured. And yet the government continues to administer this unlawful system so it can suspend income support payments for bullshit reasons.

Great meme. 👍

I'm one of the 8 in 10.

US Congressman shows us how you call Farage out , take note all you sycophantic UK journalists and politicians ! @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social youtu.be/TK6LGlesXoU?...

Stablecoins could crash our economy youtu.be/qDJ3u_mljcI?... Stablecoins are being sold as safe, secure cryptocurrencies. In reality, they are shadow banking in disguise – with the same risks that nearly destroyed the global economy in 2008

It was so great to see some friends last weekend. I am clearly a "gen X" and our views on property ownership, taxes and the state are well and truly neoliberal/ neoeconomic based. As I move towards a more democratic socialist view of life, I am seeing the

This is a pretty interesting idea. Who is the minority that is really making changes to the very fabric of the society that we live in? The ONLY way to stop them is through joining a community and standing together.

I am so impressed with keeping the original style of the arcade connecting Degraves Land and Flinder station, and in the future, the Metro tunnel somewhere in there... Maybe behind the old "telephones" doors will be the opening to the modern station. I can't wait to see it.

I saw one recently this week that made me think of this one - so sharing. To uber or to private car? #privatecar #congestion #health

Imagine we all drove EVs and then someone came along and proposed an ICE vehicle… Video credit: Nic Cruz Patane (link in Alt text)

Masculinity has certainly been called into question these days. The far right are jumping on the fact that young men in particular are feeling left out of society - but this is step to far I think. Do we really need to start WWIII just to make men feel useful again? #masculinity #empowerment

AI is a huge topic right now. I think the energy we use for it should be a bigger part of the debate, let alone the jobs it is taking. The way it is changing the way we interact, work, etc. COVID changed it, and not for the better - stats like suicide are just too high to ignore that fact. #suicide

Where are you on the spectrum?

I am probably the worst for this... and also the most frustrated when this stuff doesn't work "like it should" Sometimes walking over and pressing a physical switch is just easier! #smarthome #homeassistant

Still find it funny how the United States hasn't adopted the metric system... but... #metricsystem

Friday Funnies. Of course, also relevant, and luckily I will never be visiting the US whilst they are a fascist state, which will probably be at least 4 years, longer if they don't do something about it. #funny #friday

There’s a HUGE Elon Musk shaped hole in the Government’s new plans to improve our elections: shady billionaires like Musk can still donate massive amounts of money with no cap: effectively buying our democracy. Add your name to call for a cap on donations today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

Adam Smith was a great economist. But the invisible hand theory needs a government that is paying attention, not one that is being paid to look the other way. South Australia is looking like a greater and greater state to live in, or at least model! Bring on more states that act this way #politics

This really cracked me up. Fast trains or attention? Which is better for us? Reading The Anxious Generation atm... Social Media is not the answer to our problems, it is the problem. #socialmedia #engineering #trains

Totally wanky coffee spot in Collingwood... Roastery, cup of coffee ranging up to 120! Kinda fun. My beer glass looking cup was cooled with liquid nitrogen. Crazy. #coffee #roastery

Do you feel like this you when you talk to me? #linux #foss #opensource #vegan

This makes me giggle. It also stresses me out. The crazy fact that we have so many of these in our guts and bloodstreams. What have we done to ourselves.... #microplastics #health #longevity

Besides the companies in the US dropping targets like crazy, even in the other developed nations ESG has just been a greenwashing exercise. The fact is, it is not profitable - and Friedman said "get profit" The regulations are 10 years behind - and lobbied out of existence or watered down anyway.

Cheap lazy planet based meal... Protein, greens. Amazing taste w balsamic vinegar and eeov.

Equity has always been interesting to me as an ethical topic. This is another way to display it that I liked. #Equity #Justice #Equality

Hilarious. But oh so true. I have over 1000 passwords stored in my password vault! 1000+ ridiculous . Maybe we need a SSO - Single Sign On, that isn't owned by bigtech... Something that allows you to self host, or host on a locally owned/controlled server.

What a beautiful story about a man that was a good husband, and a good man - but a gruff, sometimes angry guy. Always doing the right thing. Heartwarming

I am so sad at the way we treat the natural world.

@michaelmezz.bsky.social can't find your podcast on my app? Are you only publishing on the big broligarchy owned networks Spotify and YouTube?

rich people/countries are consuming wayyy more than their fair share of carbon. this is important, because carbon consumption is a zero-sum game

Bloody love Amy. She is fearless and speaks with her whole chest.

Israel is a rogue state - don’t let it drag us into World War III

In Jan 2024, I accidentally built a five-figure #SciComm newsletter. No plan, just showing up, writing science like a human. Turns out, that’s what people were waiting for. Show up as you are. The world’s listening. We need more scientists online! 🧪

Call for peace, don’t beg Trump for AUKUS.

I'm just finished this beautiful movie and had to share. I'm sitting on a bus from Adelaide to Melbourne and this title jumped out at me. And wow, #beautiful Story that hit me hard, especially the ending. Hard to watch, laughing, crying, proud, admiration. Such a great film.
